SLEIPNER LOOKOUT

(4.5 Score)
Mount Archer,
Rockhampton QLD 4701 Directions

Specialty:

✓ Forests ✓ Views ✓ Hiking ✓ Walking ✓ Wildlife

“2025 Update: Sleipner Lookout over the 4.2 km Length and 144 m Elevation gain in 1.5 hours estimated time. The trail is downhill to the lookout, then it's a steep climb back up to the parking area. The reserve offers a peaceful environment that can be enjoyed by every visitor. The visitors can experience the natural beauty, with the wildflowers that spread throughout the forest. Sleipner Lookout is easy to park and an easy walk with views. The visitors did an early morning walk up, and since it's pretty much summer already, it was a nice solo experience and easy as the creeks were dry. The trek takes you across several terrains, bush, sparse canopy, and is similar to tropical undergrowth in the valleys.”

MOUNT ARCHER NATIONAL PARK REVIEWS

Mount archer is a beautiful place to enjoy the nature and the landscape in Rockhampton. The place is totally free of charge, all you need is your time and energy to walk around the place. Sunset is definitely a must at this place, so come around the evening time is ideal. The hiking trail is decent and suitable for most people. Toilet is available at the top of the park near the car park area. Beautiful place to visit

Mount Archer National Park is a breathtaking haven boasting an ample parking, and unisex toilets for visitors' comfort. The highlight, the Skywalk lookout, is just a brief stroll from the parking lot, offering awe-inspiring views. It's the perfect spot to savor a snack or lunch while taking in the stunning panoramic scenery.

I love the views here especially at sunset. The picnic area is lovely, and there's a great hike with beautiful scenery. It's a perfect spot for a relaxing day out.

BLUFF POINT SCENIC WALK REVIEWS

A moderate trail with plenty of climbing and stairs to get to the top, but take you time, bring water, and the views are well worth the effort.

Took the 2.3 km walk around the Bluff. 6oom climb to the lookout which was awesome. Then an easy climb to the top and around. Many young families enjoying it today.

What a wonderful place to go for a walk. Take the family for a great day out. Beautiful views. BBQ facilities at the bottom. You'll see turtles from the viewing platforms.

SLEIPNER LOOKOUT REVIEWS

It's beautiful place for visit. I highly recommend it to visitor who comes to Rockhampton.

Great views! It was hazy though which spoilt it... next time I hope it will be clearer.

The most beautiful place i have ever been.
